Review for St. Joseph's Indian School, Chamberlain, SD, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I was introduced to St. Joseph's Indian school a long time ago- I had been married for just 41 years when I found out my husband was terminal He loved St. Joseph and prayed to this saint everyday in his work area- I found the St. Joseph school in a web site as I was looking to find a prayer for my husband- I wrote to them, requested prayers for my husband and never stopped, even after his death, to make the St Joseph's Indian school my turn to friend.
I have been a donor to the school, and also sent them school supplies when they need them.
They have always shown great respect for life, for grief and for all who ask for help.
The children are always included in their messages. I have been sent many hand drawn papers from the children and even voice messages in emails. They do not forget your help.
They are so consistent in keeping me informed of what ever is going on, If I were younger, I would take the trip I am so generously offered by the children, so see them graduate. Cannot for physical restrictions. But I know they remember to thank and pray for everyone they come in contact with- That is the beautiful and loving warmth you receive from this school.
I truly know that the gifts you send are welcomed and that you are prayed for as a friend
I consider all these great kids, and priests friends of mine- Altho I have never personally met them, for the past several years we have kept in touch..

God has blessed me with the knowledge that the belief in God lives forever in St. Joseph Indian School and is celebrated everyday in these smiling children.
God Bless- Andrea Nichols

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

no changes are needed. The amount of mail I receive is just right- Thanks
